MODAL QUADRANGULATION (Altered Quadrant - Short Melodic Sketch)

In this short melodic sketch I illustrate how we can apply all the concepts and ideas presented in my book: MODAL QUADRANGULATION (Melodic Phrases and Exercise Ideas using Intervals of a 4th) over a Dominant 7th altered harmony. The phrase combines Modal Quadrangulation melodic cells from the C minor pentatonic and Bb melodic minor scales and it is applied over an A7alt.

This type of modern melodic phrasing, which uses the interval of a 4th as the primary building block and architectural element of the melodic line is ideal for covering intricate harmonic movements and responding to the swift turns and twists of such sonic changes.

This short phrase is also ideal for practicing technique and finger independence.

Materials Included:

"Altered Quadrant" Short Melodic Sketch (PDF file - TAB and Standard Notation).

"HD Video" of the Phrase (at tempo and slowed down).

2 Backing Tracks (Slow / Fast).
